[Thursday 22] Went hunting across Anvil & far up snake river - poor luck. 1 duck 4 snipe. McGinn tells me tonight that Richards has discovered that he is investigating him & that the Marshals office and the Nome police force are engaged in intimidating his witnesses Adam Johnson came to see me again at the command of the Marshal. - I promised him I would permit him to continue as crier - the Marshal is seeking an excuse to dismiss Adam & I decline to furnish it - let him assume his own responsibilities.
